DIY Nerf-saber #3DPrinting #3DThursday

DIY Nerf saber by Geldarr Thingiverse

Geldarr shared this project on Thingiverse!

I designed these different handles in TinkerCad to make some homemade nerf-style “lightsabers” for the kids to smack each other with. They are sized to accept common 1/2″ PVC pipe through the handle. The endcaps should interchange between handles. The buttons should also interchange with any handle (except buttons v3 – that might only fit handle v3). After printing, superglue the button panel onto the handle. Button versions v2 & v3 accept hot-melt glue formed in the included button mold – make extras and cut to preferred size, then insert into the button holes.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
